Spinach and Feta Wonton Quiche Cups
Description
This recipe forms individual quiche cups by lining a mini muffin tray with wonton wrappers, creating a crispy shell once baked. The filling blends eggs beaten with Greek yogurt, torn spinach leaves, crumbled feta cheese, and seasonings including dried minced onion and garlic powder. This mixture is spooned into each wonton cup and baked at 365°F until puffed and set, about 8 to 10 minutes, resulting in a toasty, golden exterior and a soft, creamy filling.
The spinach can be sautéed beforehand to enhance its flavor and reduce moisture, which intensifies the taste and prevents sogginess. Parsley and red pepper flakes sprinkled atop add fresh and spicy notes. Serving these with green salsa complements their savory richness with tanginess and heat. The recipe notes that in the absence of a mini muffin tin, two wonton wrappers can be shaped into a cup in a standard muffin pan.
Ingredients
- 2 egg large
- 8 wonton wrappers
- spinach torn, handful
- ½ TBSP yogurt plain, Greek
- 1 TBSP feta cheese crumbled
- onion dried minced onion, sprinkle
- garlic powder
- salt
- black pepper
- parsley light sprinkle for topping
- red pepper flakes light sprinkle for topping
- green salsa for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 365 degrees F.
- Gently place wonton squares in a mini-muffin tray spritzed with olive oil.
- Crack eggs into a coffee mug along with 1/2 tablespoon of greek yogurt and beat with a fork. Tear spinach into small pieces and toss into the mug with the eggs along with your spices and crumbled feta.
- Stir to incorporate and spoon into your won-ton cups.
- Bake for approx 8-10 minutes or until quiche mixtures fluffs up into a "muffin-top" and the edges of your won-ton cups are toasty + golden brown.
- When time permits, I highly suggest sauteing the spinach w/ a little oil, garlic, and a pinch of salt. It amps up the flavor of the gorgeous greens and tastes absolutely heavenly!
Notes
- If a mini muffin tin is unavailable, use two wonton wrappers in a standard muffin tin to form cups.
- Sautéing spinach with oil, garlic, and salt before adding increases its flavor and reduces moisture.
- Serve with green salsa to balance the creamy, savory filling with a tangy, spicy dip.
